chapter-704

Song Shuhang was thirsty because he had been spitting silk all along.

In the end, he wasn’t a monster silkworm or monster caterpillar, and his throat would inevitably get dry if he were to shoot silk out of his mouth for too long.

Aside from being thirsty, Song Shuhang felt somewhat dizzy as well. Spinning cocoons was something that required a lot of technique, and he couldn’t spin it just by shooting silk out of his mouth. While spinning the lining of the pupa shell earlier, he first had to spit silk according to a C-shaped pattern, then an S-shaped pattern, and finally an 8-shaped pattern. As if that wasn’t enough, he even had to stretch out his hands to fix the position of the silk threads.

As a consequence, even his head had started spinning at this time.

Now then, why am I going through all this trouble in the first place? Oh, right… it’s because I drank the demodragon medicine earlier to strengthen my constitution.

Dammit, if not for the fact that I have to strengthen my constitution, I would have flipped the cocoon and the bed without a second thought! Can humans even spin something such as a cocoon? It simply goes against our nature!

Song Shuhang felt that he had been spinning around for too long, and even the speed of his thoughts was half a beat slower.

Yu Jiaojiao laughed, and said, “Do you want some water? But… can you even drink water in your current condition? Let’s talk about it when you finish spinning the cocoon. Hehe~”

Song Shuhang rolled his eyes.

“Mister Shuhang, try to hold on for a little longer. We are about to enter the final stage now—the actual spinning of the cocoon. To be honest, I’m also very curious to see how the cocoon that Mister Shuhang is spinning would turn out,” the colorful butterfly Jiu Gu said with a smile.

After saying this much, she taught Song Shuhang about the final part of this process, the actual spinning of the cocoon.

Usually, a silkworm would need two days and two nights to spin a cocoon, but Song Shuhang wasn’t a silkworm. He was a cultivator of the Third Stage Realm, and the speed at which he was spinning the cocoon was getting faster and faster as he was learning the cocoon spinning technique from the colorful butterfly Jiu Gu.

With the help of his hands and the silk that was quickly shot out of his mouth, Song Shuhang had managed to complete the outline of a huge—two meters high—cocoon after around half an hour. The next step was to increase the thickness of the cocoon, and keep doing so until the silk stopped coming out of his mouth. At that point, the spinning of the cocoon would be considered complete.

Those present could see what was happening inside the cocoon through the thin external layer. At this moment, Song Shuhang was quickly spinning within the cocoon. From the looks of it, spinning a cocoon was no easy matter, and required a lot of work!

“Incredible.” Venerable White’s eyes lit up. Then, he stretched out his hand, and tried to poke the big cocoon.

However, the nearby colorful butterfly Jiu Gu quickly stopped Venerable White, and said, “Senior White, please don’t poke the cocoon at this time. The cocoon is currently very frail, and it would surely cave in if you were to poke at it. This would cause the final version of the cocoon to have some tiny flaws.”

Senior White made a hollow laugh, and took his hand back. He was very curious about the whole cocoon spinning process; it was something highly amusing!

❄️❄️❄️

Right at this time, Yu Jiaojiao smiled, and stopped recording the scene with her mobile phone.

From the moment Song Shuhang started spinning the cocoon up until now, she had recorded five small videos altogether.

In the first video, Song Shuhang was gluing the silk to the intersection of the walls and preparing the ‘web of silk’ that would act as a support.

In the second video, Song Shuhang completed the web of silk, and started spinning the lining of the pupa shell.

In the third video, he completed the lining of the pupa shell, and started to spin the actual cocoon.

Finally, in the fourth and fifth video was captured part of the cocoon spinning process. When the recording of the fifth video finished, Song Shuhang had just finished spinning the outline of the large cocoon, and a two meters high cocoon could be seen in the video.

In the next moment, Jiaojiao uploaded the five small videos to the group.

Yu Jiaojiao had also joined the Nine Provinces Number One Group recently.

Celestial Fish Envoy: “The video of Fellow Daoist Shuhang spinning his cocoon has just been released. Sometime later, I will put these several videos into a package, and upload them to the shared group space.”

Celestial Fish Envoy was Yu Jiaojiao’s nickname in the group.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “Miss Yu Jiaojiao, you did an awesome job!”

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman: “That’s simply an eye-opener. Now, we know that humans can also spin a cocoon. The next time someone asks me how a pure human cultivator can spin a cocoon, I will send them these videos.”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “[Picture of a cute puppy].”

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “What, he is spitting silk for real?! I laughed so hard just now that I almost choked. Little friend Shuhang is just too funny when he is spitting silk threads out of his mouth. I’m really looking forward to seeing how he will look once he breaks out of that cocoon.”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “[Picture of the head of a dog being furiously rubbed].”

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “…”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “Phoenix Slayer, why the hell did you interrupt my combo! You just ruined my self-deprecating humor!”

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “…” Do you think I am bored to the point of breaking your dog head rubbing combo on purpose? Idiot!

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “Let’s try again. [Picture of a cute puppy].”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “Heh. I especially waited for that idiot Guo Da to be done with his self-deprecating humor before sending the message. @Celestial Fish Envoy, Miss Yu Jiaojiao, you should have shot a video of the full process of little friend Shuhang spinning the cocoon. A lot of details about the cocoon spinning process was lost in these five videos. An incomplete course of study won’t do the job!”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “[Picture of the head of a dog being furiously rubbed].”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “…”

Vice-Island Master Tian Tianwei: “My stupid elder brother, you still ended up breaking the combo, and Guo Da furiously rubbed your head.”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “Grrr! Tian Tiankong, you also interrupted my combo! Don’t you ruin my self-deprecating humor again, or I will turn hostile!”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “Stupid Guo Da, do you think I wanted to ruin your self-deprecating humor? You even rubbed my dog head!”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “Ugh, I don’t have a dog head, what am I even saying!”

Celestial Fish Envoy: “It would take several hours to shoot the video of the complete process, and it’s not convenient to do so with a mobile phone. However, Senior Xian Gong is currently recording the whole process, and he will have the complete version at his disposal in a while. We can have him upload it to the group when the time comes.”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “Senior Xian Gong, good job!”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “You guys’d better not interrupt the combo this time! For the final time. [Picture of a cute puppy].”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “Combo breaker! I’m the super cute Doudou, and if I say so myself, it must be true! Woof, woof!”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “[Picture of the head of a dog being furiously rubbed].”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “Thanks for the rubbing~ My dog head feels really good at this moment~ Woof, woof~”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “…”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “…”

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “…”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “…”

If a dog had no shame, it would be unparalleled under the heavens! At this time, all of them imagined the scene of a pekingese quickly typing on the keyboard with a smug expression on its face.

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “Doudou, you stupid dog, you did it on purpose!”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “It seems you noticed, eh? Yes, it was indeed on purpose~ Come, rub me. I can let you rub my dog head if you wish~ but if you don’t want like it, you can come here and bite me! Heh!”

Sun Splitting Halberd Guo Da: “Doudou, you’d better get off your high horse. As soon as True Monarch Yellow Mountain is done catching Fairy Dongfang Snow and comes over, he will marry you off to a man. When that happens, I will taste your salty tears! Come, do you think I’m afraid of having a dogfight with you?!”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “…”

Island Master Tian Tiankong: “Speaking of which, I’m curious about something. Isn’t Doudou a male pekingese? Why is he marrying a man? And who is this person that is going to be Doudou’s husband?”

Vice-Island Master Tian Tianwei: “I’m also very curious. Senior Yellow Mountain has been taking care of the wedding ceremony for a while now, but there was no news about the bridegroom. We know absolutely nothing about him.”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “Now then, is it possible that Doudou is actually a Doudou (♀)?”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “How can that be! I have a little Doudou. Thereupon, I’m definitely a Doudou (♂)!”

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber: “Is it possible that True Monarch Yellow Mountain wants to use some forbidden technique to transform Doudou from Doudou (♂) to Doudou (♀)?”

Palace Master Seven Lives Talisman: “I think it’s very likely. Since the very beginning, Senior Yellow Mountain has been acting all mysterious. Therefore, I wouldn’t find it surprising if he had such forbidden technique at his disposal.”

I’m Mr. Yellow Mountain’s loyal dog: “Hey, stop scaring me!”

Cave Lord Snow Wolf: “Doudou, restrain your grief!”

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber: “Actually, if Senior Yellow Mountain really has similar a forbidden technique at his disposal, I would immediately use it on a certain senior in the group.”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator was dumbfounded at first. Then, he quickly started typing on the keyboard. He would immediately use it on a certain senior in the group? Thrice Reckless, hold your horses! Don’t say what you are going to say! You can’t seek death again today. Otherwise, you will die for real!

But before Northern River’s Loose Cultivator could finish writing his reply…

In the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Copper ‘Fortune Will Follow After One Survives a Disaster’ Trigram: “Brother Thrice Reckless, which senior are you talking about?”

Thrice Reckless Mad Saber: “Is there a need to ask? I’m talking about Venerable White!”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator: “…”

In the next moment, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator silently deleted the message he was about to send in the group.

My dear Thrice Reckless, even I can’t save you this time!

Now then, weren’t Phoenix Slayer, True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple, Wandering Monk Profound Principle, and several other fellow daoists chasing this Immortal Master Copper Trigram fellow? How come he still had the time to get online and write nonsense in the group?

Just as Northern River’s Loose Cultivator was in deep thoughts, Young Master Phoenix Slayer quickly wrote in the Nine Provinces Number One Group: “What’s happening? We just tied up Immortal Master Copper Trigram, and we are currently giving him a good beating… how was he able to get online and send messages to the group?”

Wandering Monk Profound Principle: “😳”

True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple: “Shiet, he slipped away, and we fell into his trap! The one we are beating up is probably some type of clone that Immortal Master Copper Trigram had left behind. F*ck, it’s unexpectedly a puppet! We have been fooled!”

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “Dammit, when did Immortal Master Copper Trigram exchange places with this puppet?”

But right at this time, Northern River’s Loose Cultivator furrowed his brows, and started to think.

Then, he quickly wrote in the group: “Fellow Daoist Ancient Lake Temple, Fellow Daoist Phoenix Slayer, don’t get anxious. I suggest you to carefully check that ‘puppet’ you are currently beating and see if it’s indeed a puppet. There is a chance that the ‘puppet’ you are beating up is the real body of that shady fortune teller, and that he used his disguising technique to assume the appearance of a puppet to fool you. As for the one typing in the group, it’s possibly a clone or puppet that Immortal Master Copper Trigram left behind, and it might be writing here to make you think that he secretly got away!”

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator wasn’t considered Immortal Master Copper Trigram’s greatest enemy for nothing.

As the saying went: the person that understood one the most wasn’t their best friend, but their enemy.

As such, Immortal Master Copper Trigram and Northern River’s Loose Cultivator knew each other very well.

If one looked at things from the viewpoint of the opposite party, it was often possible to see through their tricks and schemes.

Young Master Phoenix Slayer: “What Fellow Daoist Northern River said is reasonable. Fellow Daoists, let’s carefully check this puppet.”

True Monarch Ancient Lake Temple: “It makes sense. Fellow Daoist Copper Trigram’s disguising technique has no rivals in the world, and we must be very careful!”

Thereupon, the various fellow daoists that were beating up Immortal Master Copper Trigram used the methods at their disposal to check whether or not the puppet they were beating up was the real Copper Trigram.

After a short moment, in the Nine Provinces Number One Group.

Copper ‘Fortune Will Follow After One Survives a Disaster’ Trigram: “Northern River, you just reminded me of something. On the summit of the forbidden city at the beginning of September… I will beat you up until making you kneel down on the ground and beg for mercy. I will make you beg me to let you off!”
